Zooey Norman

Zooey Norman is a 23-year-old writer, Hufflepuff, and media enthusiast. This wide-eyed optimist spends her spare time neglecting a healthy sleeping schedule in order to watch films that she's already memorized, rereading the same dozen books whilst ignoring the rest, and creating her digital clone in The Sims. This pint-sized bookworm wishes she could grow plants without killing them, loves nothing more than a good behind the scenes featurette, and never manages to finish her tea before it gets cold. Zooey's first book, "Lavender Reverie" is now available to purchase on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
